EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Parsis de Bombay (engraving)" takes us back to 19th century India, offering a glimpse into the rich historical and cultural tapestry of Mumbai. The image showcases a group of Parsis, members of the Zoroastrian community, who played a significant role in shaping the city's identity. The French School's meticulous engraving beautifully captures the essence of these Parsi individuals, adorned in traditional attire that reflects their unique heritage. Their dignified expressions and graceful postures evoke a sense of pride and resilience. As we delve into this visual treasure trove, we are transported to an era marked by exploration and discovery. This print was originally featured in Le Tour Du Monde magazine in 1869, allowing readers to embark on an armchair journey through various corners of the globe. Through this image, we gain insight into Indian history as well as Parsee culture – their customs, beliefs, and contributions to society. It serves as a reminder that diversity is not just about different races or religions but also about celebrating distinct communities within one nation.
